Known Issues

Every honest product has a page like this; most hide it. Here is ours, in plain sight. If something you're hitting is listed below, it's a known limitation we're already working on — not something you broke. Check back after updating to see if it's gone.

Exchange

  • BLE exchange may fail on older Android devices — Bluetooth Low Energy exchange requires Android 12+ with BLE 5.0 support. On older devices, use QR exchange instead.
  • Audio proximity verification requires quiet environment — The ultrasonic proximity check can fail in noisy environments. This does not affect the security of the exchange, only the automatic proximity confirmation.

Sync

  • iOS background sync not yet available — On iOS, sync only runs when the app is in the foreground. Open the app periodically to receive contact updates. Android background sync works automatically.

Desktop

  • Linux Qt: some screens not yet implemented — A few secondary screens (backup scheduling, some settings panels) are still being wired on the Qt frontend.
  • Windows: device link dialog not yet available — Device linking on Windows works via QR code but lacks the confirmation dialog.
